I'm not sure if this is the correct forum, but here goes. I have a 2012r2 RDS. 2012 Server is going to end of life next year. 

My question is, would it be better to create a new server and migrate users (a 2019 RDS) or do an in place upgrade of the 2012 server to 2019. I have never been a fan of in place upgrades, but I don't want a big mess with moving everybody to a new server.

In doing some research it appears that Transwiz might be the tool I need to move users to a new server cleanly. I do not want uncertainty though, so I am here asking about it. If I build a new server and get all of the apps installed will Transwiz move my users and all of their data without issues or missing something?

This question may already be answered somewhere in these forums, but my searches could not find it. Thank you in advance for responses.
